Author Games: The Final War

Mind Male: Jensen Saunders

Name: Jensen Saunders

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Affinity: Mind

Strength of Affinity: Illusions

Appearance: Disheveled and tired-looking, Jensen resembles a man who hasn't slept in weeks - which he hasn't. His hair, which is a gingerish shade of brown, stands in every which way, as if it were trying to escape him and his nightmares. His eyes, grey as slush, are dull and tired, without revealing as much as a hint of emotion. His face resembles the moon: pale and scarred in multiple places, as if he scratched himself in his dreams. Short and scrawny, Jensen is no physical trait. But what he can do with his mind has no equal.

Personality: Absent at times, yet perfectly disciplined and insightful at others, Jensen is the very definition of unbalanced. Despite this, he always manages to know exactly what's going on - he simply doesn't bother to react every now and then. Though he's fond of people, he has a bit of a hard time getting along with them; Jensen's natural prank-loving side has given him the bad habit of forcing hallucinations on people (apparently they don't like that). Gifted with a sense of self-deprecating humour, Jensen sees everything with a grain of salt and rarely takes anything too seriously.

History: Born of two Strong Mind parents, Jensen was always destined to be great. That being said, what would happen to him was never predicted; someone like him had never been born before. Once people realized the strength of his gift, they shut him away to be forgotten, trained in secret. Nobody's seen - or heard of - Jensen Saunders in over a decade.

Leadership qualities:

1. Dishonest; Jensen's a compulsive liar. Though this isn't usually a good thing, in a world so close to war, it can be quite useful.

2. Stubborn; again, not usually a good thing. However, politicians clearly have different values. He doesn't waver in his decision making, thus making him a strong ruler.

Token: A miniature sandglass hanging on a pendent.

Other: Jensen is the strongest illusionist alive. However, in order to make these illusions, he too has to witness him. This has led him to mild madness and constant nightmares.
